Own the rights?
One of the lesser Columbo movies. Eddie Albert is quite unbelievable as a decorated military man, and his persistent nagging of the woman who witnesses his crime would have set off alarm bells in almost any normal person's mind. Just to make the whole thing even more far-fetched, the writers try to convince us that Suzanne Pleshette is a rather desperate woman who is genuinely captivated by and attracted to Eddie Albert, and so lets herself be talked out of believing she saw what she saw. The whole romance business is rather embarrassing. It would have been a bit more believable had the witness been Kate Reid, who plays Pleshette's mother in her usual broad style, but in the end nobody involved in this story evokes much sympathy or concern.
